In this episode, Jade opens up about the personal reason she took on Comrades, the doubts she had along the way, what surprised her most about the experience, and why she believes far more young women should be standing on that start line.
And with two Comrades finishes already behind her, including a silver medal, she’s now considering a goal that even she admits scares her.
